Josh and Kristy - September 26, 2009

On Saturday, Josh and Kristy were married at the Fox Chapel Golf Course, where their reception was also held.

Earlier this year, I met Kristy and her mom to talk about photography. As they talked about Kristy's wedding, I was fascinated (and dare I say happy?) to find that "tradition" was not among their priorities in the least. I love it when brides make their wedding their own and infuse their style and personality into all the many details, and Kristy did just that. The result was a stunningly elegant yet modern and edgy wedding from start to finish.

Josh surprised me. I was expecting a laid back super cool guy (which he was) who would be somewhat uninterested in photos or dancing. As you can see below, he committed to his photos with Kristy (thankyousomuch), and got down on the dance floor. He and Kristy were tons of fun to photograph - both during their photo shoot and while they danced the night away with their friends and family.

Kristy had no trouble being fabulous.

She was making him laugh during his photos -

so I put her back in.

A little drama.

Love this one-

Their first dance.

The last note. Well done, Josh.

LOVE IT.
